day ONE THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED and EIGHTY FIVE

April in a Time of Coronavirus

High speed

death road

rally races

down our long

sloping hill

mostly stopped

now

The “Let’s Celebrate

Spring” all night

beer blasts that

start at sundown

and end with dawn

and the outdoor

pot parties

both with loud

music

moved inside

or cancelled

Nights are mostly

quiet now

almost peaceful

Some nights

we even

sleep

well
